- Ric_FlairExplorerI would think getting out of it would be tuff after driving it in?
Also, I assume no beds?
I say this because my Mule is a tight fit. - babysvtExplorerWe are currently working on a deal for a Voltage 3818. We have been told that it will handle the weight of our 2014 Jeep Unlimited Rubicon (5000 pound, four door). Not sure I believe them. We have found that the ramp will tolerate 3000 pounds and have been told due to the space between the tires there would only be one Jeep axle on the ramp at a time in essence 1/2 the weight or 2500 pounds. They are assuring us that the interior garage (18 feet) can handle the weight of the Jeep. We know it will handle the length, height and width but I an concerned about the weight. We are going to insist on a test drive with the Jeep loaded in the back of the TH. I will post what our outcome is. Should be an interesting experience.
- 2btowedExplorerA friend has a Forest River he had built to haul a rock crawler.No slides,just straight to the kitchen.It origanally came with 2 axles and they added a third.3-7k axles,and they increased the size of his I-beams to hold the weight.He still had to change his tires to get it in the back door,way too tall.
- my996duc1ExplorerA stock Jeep Wrangler TJ has a curb weight of 3092lbs-3857lbs. Looks like they vary alot with the different options.
Bigger tires, winch, afermarket bumpers and the weight will add up quickly.
Best thing to do would be to take the wrangler and weigh it.

I ran my TJ across the scales and I was right at 4200 lbs. That is with the inline six, hard top, full doors, winch, and oversized tires. - carringbExplorerWeekend Warrior 32'+ (FS3000, FS3400, FSC/FSW3200) pull-behing models might be able to depending on dry weight. The ramp doors are strong enough, and they did not list a cargo area restriction. But the dry weights can be so heavy a Jeep would probably end most over the 13000 GVWR. I don't recommend exceeding the GVWR, even if there is lots of axle capacity left. Turns out the frame is the weak point. A aluminum-body WW might be light enough to stay under GVWR loaded with a jeep.

A TJ will run around 3300# and a JK will run closer to 3800#. - butchfuzionExplorerWrangler will fit in my Fuzion 399 with 14 foot garage but I'm not sure about the weight. My TH has a limit of 2500# in the garage. What does the Wrangler weigh?
- my996duc1ExplorerYes, I have seen a couple of people doing it.
Don't know the models of TH, so not much help.
When I was searching one major factor was the ramp door capacity.
If you can get it inside then the next hurdle was where the weight is being carried in relation to the axles. Most of the toyhaulers with garages wouldn't work for me as the garage area couldn't handle the weight and the axles were in front of the garage, not under it.
